Gatari is a regional festival celebrated by the Maharashtrian community just before the beginning of the holy month of Shravan. Gatari Amavasya falls on the No Moon day in the month of Ashad, in the Hindu calendar. The day-long celebration involves a good feast with non-vegetarian food and alcohol. It is celebrated in all enthusiasm since people avoid eating non-veg and also alcohol during Shravan. Gatari Amavasya 2018 will fall on August 11, and the holy Shravan Maas will begin from August 12. Those who cannot celebrate together, make sure to send funny WhatsApp messages and memes about the festival.
